## monotone
$a_{n}<a_{n}+1$ increasing
$a_{n}>a_{n}+1$ decreasing
Can be used to define limits.
## Bounds
### bounded above
There is a $M$ such that $a_{n}\le M$ for all $n>1$
### bounded below
There is a $m$ such that $a_{n}\ge m$ for all $n>1$
## monotone and bounded convergent
Definition of 'bounded' ::: Bounded from both above and below. ^1653317426701
You have to specify if it's just above or just below.
The [[sequences|sequence]] is [[convergence and divergence of series.|convergent]] if it's monotone + bounded in its direction, or if it's generally monotone+bounded.
